Centralized Server Administration in centos & rhel

Hi,

I have Cent OS and Redhat servers in my environment and we are administering the servers individually. Now we have decided to implement a centralized administration so that redundant admin accounts in all servers can be eliminated and they can be maintained in a single server. Is it possible to manage Cent OS and Redhat servers in a centralized environment or Cent OS server and Redhat servers in a different group. Is it possible to use LDAP or Redhat Directory services. Thanks in advance.

If you have a AD server then it is quite straight forward to attach your Nix servers to AD, you can either use sssd or nclsd service for that.

That's the sort of thing LDAP and related techs are for
